You know who else liked Xbox Live?
I was amused--except for "How could this OF happened?"
Der Fuehrer would not have made this grammatical faux pas.
And he never said "baby!"

I heard he was more partial to flight sims.

For maximum Dark Side of the Rainbow-ishness, I recommend you watch this with the sound off while cranking Yngwie Jfucking Malmsteen's "Black Star".
That is all.

Gotta say, for me the flight sim link was much, much funnier. But mostly that's a fantastic clip for pretty much anything to be subtitled. You could probably subtitle this thread onto that clip and it would be awesome.

Previous discussion of Downfall. Great movie, you really should see it, but take some Prozac.

Yes, Heywood, in a field of just insanely quotable lines, that was by far the most inspired.

Not only do I find it not so very funny because I speak German, I also find it almost impossible to read the subtitles as if they were spoken while hearing something completely different at the same time. The perceptive dissonance is too much for me!

Hint: If you speak German, the video becomes funny again if you turn the sound off.

You know who else is kinda tired of this?
Yeah, that's right.
JUST ABOUT EVERYBODY.
The ENTIRE goddamn "You know who else liked X?" where X=Hitler thing? Is stupid. Played out. IT IS NOT FUNNY. And why people think it is, I don't understand, except that some people don't have the humor comprehension that God gave to the pierogies in my freezer.

mephron, the problem with your analysis is that the X does not equal Hitler. The "who else" part is Hitler. You know who else made such mistakes?

Perhaps it's because I've already seen Downfall, but I found myself absolutely riveted by my understanding of what was actually happening, and unable to pay any attention to the subtitles.

The Sheffield United one is funny but is ultimately ruined by the dullard who made it having seemingly never heard of an apostrophe.

Something is humorous. And then it's played out. And then by sheer force of repetition, it's funny again, but now it's not funny for what it was originally funny, now it's funny because it's being driven into the ground and whipped like a dead horse rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic, and only then, after all of that, does it cease being funny.
Then, a few years later, it's funny again, but this time it's nostalgia-funny. It gets funny again, originally funny, a few years later, when it's turned into a musical.

For the record, this is the first time I've ever seen Hitler made hilarious. Something about Microsoft pwning Hitler just APPEALS.
